Did The TSA Use Evidence From Waka Flocka’s Arrest To Gain Instagram Followers?

Waka Flocka was arrested at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Friday and to add insult to injury, the TSA might have uploaded evidence from his arrest to their social media accounts.

According to multiple reports, the Atlanta police arrested the rapper after he was stopped at security with a hand-gun in his carry-on bag. Waka does not have a weapons permit so he and was taken to the Clayton County jail and charged with carrying a weapon in a prohibited place.

Shortly after the arrest was made, the TSA’s Instagram account posted a picture of a handgun with the following caption:

“#TSACatch – This 5.7X28mm pistol was discovered in a carry-on bag today at the #Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson (#ATL) International Airport. It was loaded with 29 rounds plus one in the chamber. This could have been legally packed in checked baggage. Learn more about traveling with firearms at TSA.gov.”

It just so happens that TMZ looked into it and found that Waka was the only person arrested Friday at the Atlanta airport, meaning that it is a very likely that the gun in the picture was the one found in his possession.

Is there a chance that the TSA posted the picture and then called celebrity gossip site to tip them off that the gun was Waka’s as a way to gain more social media followers?
